Cash, wh is nw knwn as the “cnservatin kid”, has always lved nature. He grew up fishing alng the Chattanga River, after all! But nce he learned that 80 percent f all trash frm land and rivers ends up in the cean, he culdn’t sit back.
He started with cleanups alng the river, smething that quickly went frm a family affair t a cmmunity effrt with vlunteers and neighbrs. In 2019, Cash, tgether with a Canadian cnservatinist, Ella Galaski-Rssen, started a nnprfit called the Cleanup Kids. Despite living in different cuntries, they managed t create educatinal vides n their YuTube channel. “We hpe t be a really big nnprfit that eliminates plastic in the U. S. and Canada,” Cash said. “We want t infrm kids and adults in the landlcked states n hw their actins are cnnected t the water and the cean,” Cash said.
Cash was selected as ne f America’s tp 10 yuth vlunteers f 2021 by the Prudential Spirit f Cmmunity Awards.

T reduce the carbn emissins frm passenger jets and lng-haul trucks, a vast vlume f sy-based renewable fuel will be needed. T prduce it, American farmers culd ruin existing crnfields t clear space, plant millins f additinal acres f sybeans and shut dwn all sybean exprts. Researchers at startups and bitech giants alike have fund ways t create a new kind f sybeans thrugh genetic recmbinatin that generates mre il.
One f the startups, ZeaKal Inc., funded in part by seed giant Crteva Inc., plans t intrduce its first batch f high-il seeds fr cmmercial planting in 2024. Scientists have tricked the plant int sustaining phtsynthesis fr lnger with genetic recmbinatin, ultimately prducing mre il as well as mre prtein.
Cmpanies are racing t build mre capacity t prcess sy, a critical cmpnent fr expanding green fuel supplies. Tax credits make cmpanies in the transprtatin industry switch t fuel with lwer carbn emissin. S&P Glbal sees dmestic demand fr renewable bifuel reaching 4 billin gallns in 2030, up frm arund 2.7 billin this year. It prjects that the use f sustainable aviatin fuel will ttal 1.7 billin gallns annually by the end f the decade, cmpared with just 182 millin gallns a year nw.
Despite the bullish predictins, the sy-based transprtatin fuel market is still a drp in the bucket fr the fuel industry. And even if the new breed f high-il seeds takes ff, widespread adptin will take time. Farmers may be reluctant t becme early adpters f a technlgy that hasn’t yet prven its benefits, especially if the il cntent cmes at the expense f existing genetic recmbinatins that imprve disease r pest resistance.
Chicken prducer Perdue Farms Inc. has signed a deal with Zeakal, agreeing t pay farmers a higher price fr harvested supplies f the new variety, which is gd fr chicken feed because f its higher prtein levels. If large il cmpanies fllw suit, the sybean market might never lk the same. “We culd have an pprtunity fr the il cmpnent f sybeans t actually becme mre imprtant in sme markets than the prtein aspect,” says Mike Dilln, vice president f ZeaKal, “That’s a very dramatic shift.”
8. Hw did researchers plan t prduce mre il?
A. By planting mre sybeans.
B. By banning sybean exprts.
C. By fertilizing sybean fields.
D. By engineering sybean genes.
9. What des the authr want t shw by mentining the figure in paragraph 3?
A. The cntinuus use f the fuel.

C. The serius lack f green fuel supplies.
D. The fierce cmpetitin between cmpanies.

A. Cmpanies.B. Farmers.C. Scientists.D. Gvernments
11. Which can be the best title f the text?
A. Bifuel: A New Way t Cut Dwn Carbn Emissins

Whenever I rder fd fr delivery, I play a little game t guess hw many sets f tableware(餐具)the restaurant will prvide with my meal. Smetimes restaurants will thrw in tw, three r fur sets fr just ne rder. But I rarely need any tableware at all, and the waste ges int the trash r cllects dust in a kitchen drawer.
Researchers wrking with Chinese technlgy grup Alibaba tried a simple apprach t this prblem. Instead f just wastefully dling ut tableware, the cmpany required fd-delivery custmers in sme cities in China t pick hw many sets f tableware they wanted t receive.The default (默认设置)was set at zer. The result, published tday in the jurnal Science, was a 638% increase in the share f n-tableware rders. If applied acrss China, researchers fund, the apprach wuld save nearly 22 billin sets f plastic tableware. The study desn’t cver carbn emissins, but it’s safe t say that the impact wuld be significant. It struck me as a useful reminder f the many lw-hanging fruits acrss the ecnmy that can cut waste, and emissins.
Nudging its custmers cst Alibaba nthing mre than a few hurs f sftware engineering time and the impact it brught was immense. The cncept f nudging cmes frm the field f behaviral ecnmics knwn as nudge thery. It suggests that a slight actin can encurage gd human behavir withut the need fr plicies that limit chice r ecnmic punishment that raises the cst f bad behavir. T nudge custmers t eat better, fr example, a restaurant might rganize its menu by listing healthy ptins first and bury unhealthy nes at the bttm. Mre recently, sme big cmpanies like Ggle have als begun t use nudges t advance climate bjectives.
Behaviral ecnmics bradly, and nudges mre specifically, aren’t withut cntrversy. Sme might think it assigns cnsumers respnsibility fr addressing envirnmental challenges. But there is anther way t lk at it. In the absence f necessary plicy—and plicy is needed一cmpanies can help encurage a widespread shift f cnsumer behavir.
And all f that behaviral change can add up. The Internatinal Energy Agency fund in 2021 that small behaviral changes in energy cnsumptin such as walking instead f driving and adjusting the thermstat culd in ttal shave ff 4% f glbal emissins. The mre that cmpanies can d t facilitate such changes, the better.
12. What did Alibaba d with tableware waste?
A. It stpped restaurants frm handing ut tableware.
B. It withdrew unused tableware frm custmers.
C It updated the fd -delivery device regularly.
D. It allwed picking tableware at custmers’ demand.
13. What d the underlined wrds “lw-hanging fruits” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Easily accessible things.B. Fast increasing rders.
C. Exceptinally tugh chices.D. Widely accepted strategies.
14. What can we learn abut nudge thery frm paragraph 3?
A. It brings abut ecnmic lss.
B. It results frm cnsumptin plicies.
C. It indicates small actin changes behaviur.
D. It implies bad behaviur impacts ecnmy.
15 What is the main idea f the text?

“Yu shuld thrw me in the bin, Mummy.”
Thse are the wrds my sn say t me, wrds a mther shuld never hear their child say. When I asked him why, he tld me that like his digger, he was brken and culd nt be fixed. My heart cracked a little mre at that and I knew that, I had t try and find a way t bring back the jy int ur wrld.
At age tw, he was diagnsed with type tw diabetes and he was “just lsing his puppy fat”. My sn grew sicker and sicker until eventually, he was admitted int hspital.
Mtherhd changed in that mment. I went frm “Mummy” t nurse, always keeping a watch fr signs he might be in danger frm his wn bdy. It can be hard t find the balance between the demands f being a full-time carer fr a child with illness and being a mther. In thse early days, it brke me t hear him beg and cry fr me nt t hurt him with needles again. The risks that cme alng are as big as they can be: blindness, rgan failure, cma, death. His life is, and always will be, dependent n the mnitring and assessment f all these factrs.
Yet, I had t find a way t raise him t knw that he culd live it fully and with all his dreams within reach. I had t learn hw t live with these tw rles, just as he had t learn t live with the demands his bdy wuld place n him. What I had nt expected was t find the way thrugh in the mud and rubble (瓦砰) f a new-build scial husing estate.
My husband, sn and I mved t the new estate in Cumbria when my sn was fur. The back garden was nthing mre than a patch f newly swn grass, and a thin layer f tpsil. Underneath that was rubble and rck. The site was a frmer industrial stnewrks, and but t us, it was a place f hpe.

Whenever I rder fd fr delivery, I play a little game t guess hw many sets f tableware(餐具)the restaurant will prvide with my meal. Smetimes restaurants will thrw in tw, three r fur sets fr just ne rder. But I rarely need any tableware at all, and the waste ges int the trash r cllects dust in a kitchen drawer.
Researchers wrking with Chinese technlgy grup Alibaba tried a simple apprach t this prblem. Instead f just wastefully dling ut tableware, the cmpany required fd-delivery custmers in sme cities in China t pick hw many sets f tableware they wanted t receive.The default (默认设置)was set at zer. The result, published tday in the jurnal Science, was a 638% increase in the share f n-tableware rders. If applied acrss China, researchers fund, the apprach wuld save nearly 22 billin sets f plastic tableware. The study desn’t cver carbn emissins, but it’s safe t say that the impact wuld be significant. It struck me as a useful reminder f the many lw-hanging fruits acrss the ecnmy that can cut waste, and emissins.
Nudging its custmers cst Alibaba nthing mre than a few hurs f sftware engineering time and the impact it brught was immense. The cncept f nudging cmes frm the field f behaviral ecnmics knwn as nudge thery. It suggests that a slight actin can encurage gd human behavir withut the need fr plicies that limit chice r ecnmic punishment that raises the cst f bad behavir. T nudge custmers t eat better, fr example, a restaurant might rganize its menu by listing healthy ptins first and bury unhealthy nes at the bttm. Mre recently, sme big cmpanies like Ggle have als begun t use nudges t advance climate bjectives.
Behaviral ecnmics bradly, and nudges mre specifically, aren’t withut cntrversy. Sme might think it assigns cnsumers respnsibility fr addressing envirnmental challenges. But there is anther way t lk at it. In the absence f necessary plicy—and plicy is needed一cmpanies can help encurage a widespread shift f cnsumer behavir.
And all f that behaviral change can add up. The Internatinal Energy Agency fund in 2021 that small behaviral changes in energy cnsumptin such as walking instead f driving and adjusting the thermstat culd in ttal shave ff 4% f glbal emissins. The mre that cmpanies can d t facilitate such changes, the better.

“Yu shuld thrw me in the bin, Mummy.”
Thse are the wrds my sn say t me, wrds a mther shuld never hear their child say. When I asked him why, he tld me that like his digger, he was brken and culd nt be fixed. My heart cracked a little mre at that and I knew that, I had t try and find a way t bring back the jy int ur wrld.
At age tw, he was diagnsed with type tw diabetes and he was “just lsing his puppy fat”. My sn grew sicker and sicker until eventually, he was admitted int hspital.
Mtherhd changed in that mment. I went frm “Mummy” t nurse, always keeping a watch fr signs he might be in danger frm his wn bdy. It can be hard t find the balance between the demands f being a full-time carer fr a child with illness and being a mther. In thse early days, it brke me t hear him beg and cry fr me nt t hurt him with needles again. The risks that cme alng are as big as they can be: blindness, rgan failure, cma, death. His life is, and always will be, dependent n the mnitring and assessment f all these factrs.
Yet, I had t find a way t raise him t knw that he culd live it fully and with all his dreams within reach. I had t learn hw t live with these tw rles, just as he had t learn t live with the demands his bdy wuld place n him. What I had nt expected was t find the way thrugh in the mud and rubble (瓦砰) f a new-build scial husing estate.
My husband, sn and I mved t the new estate in Cumbria when my sn was fur. The back garden was nthing mre than a patch f newly swn grass, and a thin layer f tpsil. Underneath that was rubble and rck. The site was a frmer industrial stnewrks, and but t us, it was a place f hpe.
